Warning-- Straight wheels when jacking up your front tires
Posted: Thu Jan 10, 2008 11:36 pm
Hey
Just a heads up. Make sure that your front wheels are straight forward if you jack up your driver-side wheel as the steering arm boot bellows can get damaged
. I had to jack up the front wheel and had the steering turned ever so little, the frame pinched and punctured the bellows of the steering arm boot. So make sure that your wheels are straight before you jack it up.
Has any one changed the boot cover?
Part number or any ideas?
I am booked in to get the alignment done at West Coast next week but they asked me to supply the part myself for obvious reasons...
